Helenium autumnale ‘Bandera’ Plant
Vibrant flowers on upright stems wave enthusiastically above a very compact and densely branched mound of green foliage. Dark inflorescences form a tight center globe above a showy banner of gold-tipped, brick red petals. A profusion of flowers that lasts from late summer into fall, often until first frost. An herbaceous perennial.
